NPS Investment Options and Rules for NRIs, Including Job Changes and Alternatives
Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) can invest in the National Pension System (NPS) through Tier-I accounts, which offer long-term retirement savings with investment options in equities, corporate bonds, and government securities. Tier-II accounts are not available to NRIs. Contributions can be made via NRE or NRO bank accounts, with repatriation allowed. NPS accounts are portable across employers, and accumulated pension wealth remains intact when changing jobs. Additionally, NRIs consider fixed deposits and debt mutual funds for investment, with tax implications varying by account type and investment choice.
